Probate and conveyancing.

Following my late mothers death in April, I as executor, needed legal services to secure Grant of Probate, and conveyancing for the sale of the property. During both processes, I was kept informed of progress. Any questions I had were answered promptly. I am pleased to say the whole process, for both matters was seemlessly completed by 21/08/2024.

Excellent service - Cannot thank you enough.

Charlotte provided an exemplary service from start to finish in my case. She remained professional at all times, but also supportive in making such an unpleasant experience much more bearable; she went above and beyond to ensure I reached a fair outcome. I believe I could not have reached such a positive outcome without her aid - Thank you.

Horrible!

It was horrible! I had Jack Ball on my case and they were the worst!!! I lost the purchase on the house thanks to them! It was a simple one bed flat, there was nothing complicated to the purchase, the only thing to it was Shared Ownership with a Lease Extension. The lease extension side of things surprisingly they managed to do, they got the new Lease sorted but couldn't do the paper work for a simple one bed flat purchase! They sat on it for a year with none of the queries answered or cleared. They blamed others for not responding which 1-that was their job to chase, 2-they had more than 9 months and still had no answers! Like seriously?! (People conceived and gave birth in that much time!) And then they spun the whole thing around on the new BSA which had come into affect more than 3 months before my Mortgage Offer expired, but they waited till the last week before my mortgage offer was due to expire to raise this!! I couldn't believe them! They were so incompetent! And the entire year, I had to keep chasing them asking for answers, updates on the progress on my purchase. And I was a client of theirs! There was absolutely NO communication from them on anything! No information or communication (in this day and age) on what was going on with my purchase! Guessing, since there was none! I would not recommend them to anyone! They were the worst! I don't know what sort of a professional service they are running! Guessing they're big enough firm to get away with small FTB clients such as myself!

Painless Purchase

Holmes and Hills provided me with their expertise for the purchase of my house which was a New Build. I’d heard these can be a problem but there wasn’t any, and I found them to be helpful throughout the process and very friendly to talk to.

Brilliant

Saling and buying a house its stressful, but two things can help, 1) a good agent, 2) a good solicitor. Having a good solicitor saves ones sanity, and Mrs Melanie Francis did just that! She worked fast, always answered my questions despite being confusing, and heloed me understand the process easier. I would not hesitate to employ her again, or to recommend!
